We present an introduction to a new class of numerical methods for approximating distributions of solutions of stochastic differential equations. The convergence results for these methods are based on certain sharp gradient bounds established by Kusuoka and Stroock under non-Hormader constraints on diffusion semigroups. These bounds and some other subsequent refinements are covered in these lectures. In addition to the description of the new class of methods and the corresponding convergence results, we include an application of these methods to the numerical solution of backward stochastic differential equations. As it is well-known, backward stochastic differential equations play a central role in pricing financial derivatives.
